The Joss NE 9-Ball Tour resumed their season over the weekend with a $2000 added event at Raxx Pool Room & Grill in West Hempstead, NY.
This event came down to tour director Mike Zuglan and WPBA sensation Karen Corr for the hot-seat. The hot seat went to Corr in a tight 9-6 match.
On the one loss side, Zuglan faced off against Shin Park for the right to play in the finals. Shin held an early 5-2 lead in this match, but Zuglan came back to score a 9-7 win.
The true double elimination finals between Corr and Zuglan started off close with both players tied at 4-4 before Corr made a run and got to the hill at 8-4. Next it was Zuglan's turn to make a run and he ran four straight racks to get even at 8-8. Zuglan needed one more rack to force a second set in the finals, but it was not meant to be as he came up dry on the break and was unable to stop Corr from running out the final rack.
The Joss NE 9-Ball Tour will be at Classic Billiards in Rochester, NY on March 24th - 25th for their next event.
